Huh, I don't know if I've heard that particular critique before.  Can I ask in what way(s) do you find it to be so complex? 

Too many characters, too many locations. Lots and lots of moving parts. Best move Peter Jackson did was to wipe out the Tom Bombadil sideshow.

I liked it - it pioneered too much for me not to appreciate it. Compare it to The Hobbit. There's a lot of difference.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

My doctor wrote me a prescription for daily sex.

My wife insists that it says dyslexia but what does she know.

The whole thing worked brilliantly. If I'm going to reach for some Tolkien to read, there's no contest as to which one comes off the shelf.
